Chapter 13: Chapter 13

"What nonsense are you spewing? How the fuck will I, the Beta's daughter and most beautiful girl in this pack, be jealous of a dirty and ugly pig who killed her mother and twin brother!" She snickered and gawked at me with reddened face and gritting teeth.

I couldn't help giggling at wgar she just said. Most beautiful, for real?

"Who really gave you that hope? Even if they had all deceived you by telling you that you are beautiful, don't you have a mirror to show how you really look like?" I sneered and roamed my eyes through her body, making sure it had disgust glint in them.

Although she was the Beta's daughter, I didn't see any single reason to let her insult me. If things had gone well, she should be bowing to me as the Alpha daughter, going on any errand I send her on. It was more annoying to see jealousy in her eyes whenever she looked into my face. I guess she loves my eyes and wishes she had them.

"You aren't afraid. I will report you to the Alpha. Or you've lost your memories and can't remember how much the Alpha detests your existence! He will beat you up for calling me an ugly girl!!" She screeched like a baby, sulking while primping her hair.

"Oh, I thought you would attack me yourself. Are you scared I'll break your thin bone! And I never said you're ugly, but it seems you already know." I giggled, flipping my astrayed hair back as I stared straight to her face.

"I might kill you if we fight. Before I realize it, you must be dead already, so don't push me to fight with you!" Her voice was cold this time and I could feel how mean she was, yet there was no room for fear in me, which I find hard to understand.

She was right. I am no match for her as she is well trained for battle by her father and must have gotten her first shift as a werewolf, which I still dream of. It still troubles me how I turned 16 without having my first shift like a normal wolf.

Now I will be 18 in a week. I don't know how possible it will be to have my shift at that age. Late bloomers shift at the age of 18. I just hope I am one of them, or I will just be giving my father and everyone in the pack more reasons to loathe and torture me more badly.

I paused my pace and turned to the young girl, who looked furious now as she dropped her arms, forming claws from her fingers.

Shit.

She was really going to fight me.

"You will be a fool to think I'll be scared of a mere Beta's daughter. Let me remind you, I am the Alpha's only daughter, and you know what that means? I will either be the next Alpha of this pack or choose to leave it to your father, the Beta, which I will never do. He will be my loyal Beta when I become the Alpha" My lips curled up into a smirk while watching her face turn red in anger.

"I'll kill you!!" She snarled, and my body shuddered at seeing her shift into her wolf. A quick glance at the door and I realized it was closed. It will take me some time to reach it and draw it open before running. She'll catch me in three steps if she runs like a wolf.

What was wrong with me?

How was I blurting words without fear?

"Killing the Alpha's daughter has one punishment for a beta, and that is banishment. I don't mind turning rogue just to have you dead!" She threatened as her muscles enlarged and her fangs shot out with both eyes glowing red.

"You will be killed by hunters out there if you become a rogue.." I mumbled as fear began to creep in slowly. Maybe I had gone too far.

"I don't care!" Her scream lashed into my ears, and just like lightning, she launched her first attack at me. I couldn't even attempt running and could only stare as she clawed at me.

But just then, when I lost all hope, someone dashed in and shielded my body from the attack.

"Nana, stop! Are you crazy?" The deep growl of my savior sounded in my ears, and I instantly recognized the voice.

It was Eric, one of the guards that took me away for treatment after that torture.

"I'll teach her a big lesson some other day! Fool!" The Beta's daughter seethed as she shifted back to her human form, stomping out but not without glaring dangerously at me as I trailed her till she left the room before turning to the guard.

"You really saved my life....Thank..."

"Shut the fuck up and get out of this clinic. The Alpha should know you have wake," he snapped with no trace of softness.

It was like he was forced to save me as nothing about him showed he wanted to do that. Hatred was still extreme in his eyes.

"But you just saved me. Why acting.." His hand smacked across my lips, cutting my words as his frown deepened.

"Stop talking to me and get the fuck out. You think I wanted to save you? Nonsense. If not for that guy, I would have joined hands with Nana to deal with you mercilessly," he fumed in annoyance before walking away with his boot hitting the ground like it had issues with it.

My brows arched as I wondered about which guy he was talking about. Just then, it came rushing back into my head, the memories I had forgotten.

I can now remember the bald guard and this guard. They tried raping me! I almost shifted into a ferocious beast! Someone barged in and I passed out.

Could the guy he is talking about be the one who barged in? Who could he be to make this royal guard protect me?
